First Place OPTIONS is the leading Ottawa based organization offering decision aid support to anyone facing an unplanned pregnancy.

“Our new name, First Place OPTIONS, focuses in on our core service – pregnancy options counselling.  We have invested a great deal over the years in developing, honing, and evolving this vital maternal health service.  We consider ourselves priviledged to be experts and leaders in this overlooked and ignored area of maternal health.  It is our intention that no one face an unplanned pregnancy alone.  Decision aid support is offered free of charge to anyone involved in an unplanned pregnancy.  Over the years those who have chosen to access our services have greatly appreciated the support we offer.  We are committed to providing accurate and up-to-date information on all three pregnancy options and to offer options counselling in an unbiased, non-judgemental, and confidential setting. “  Terri Mazik, Executive Director.
